Abstract

Abstract: Competitiveness is being important issue for Indonesia to face globalization. Human resources is one factors that must be developed physically and mentally. The goal is to produce human resources who has competence and can compete in the change and complexity world and finally have competitiveness. Ergonomic approach can be used to develop human resources to think and act comprehensively. Total ergonomic approach and total ergonomic approach model provide some approach to empower the human through several steps of action in implementation of ergonomic intervention. The most important of this process is the human as a subject of ergonomic intervention, because they will use any product from industry and any environment changes during activities. Homestasis of the human must be considered and must be maintain while do ergonomic intervention, monitoring and evaluation. The human systems are references and as parameter for evaluation of any changes in ergonomic intervention that affect to the human. The parameters developed from the systems for objective assessment and prevent the human from injury or disesases. Some parameters that can be used to monitor human body during activities such as heart rate, oxygen uptake, musculoskeletal disorders, energy expenditure, balance of body liquid and others. The use of body systems as parameter showed that physiology is important role in ergonomic intervention because the effect of it is the human who use and interact to working condition such as tools, machines, work stations and environment.
